DIFFER, BUT BE FRIENDS.

1t is the CHIEFTAIN's purpose to
present every citizen, without dis
tinction, the right hand of person
al friendship, let political differ.
ences be what they may. Honest
disagreement in opinion or pref
erence should make no one an en-
emy, because if these thing are
properly estimated such differ
ences are necessary to the healthy
existence Of all governments, and
OF an honest and impartial admin
istration of justice to every citizen.
Not in a political application alone
is this SO, but in the affairs that
make up the condition of all pros
porous peoples whether in mate
rial wealth, morals religion, refine
ment. or aught else that elevates
the social standard. The false by
this means is discovered and truth,
be itin what it may, is established.
Nor will the CHIEFrAIN endorse,
but condemn any communication
that attempts to erect caste or
blood lines for political purposes
or for any other purpose to the
injury of any one of the many
kinds that make up the popula-
ton of the country.
The Downing party, as originally
organized on compromise of diff
ferences between those who were
willing to forgive and forget old
grievances, and become united as
one people again, with all the graf
flying relations of friendship and
common interests restored, can
not and and will not countenance
any difference Of political rights
in the government. In its ranks
none are disqualified because he
was a rebel or that he is an adopt
ed citizen.

BUILDING a PLATFoRM.

At Tahlequah last week a few
representatives from the National
party, met TO adopt a platform.
Only a few of the districts were
regularly represented. After
much debating and hunting over
accommodating grounds, in order
TO find points upon which an agree
ments could be effected, they fin
ally reached conclusions. 1t ap-
pears that a demand-a request
II may have .been-was made by
a delegate from one Of the adopted
tribes that the party make the con-
cession In their platform, that the
Delawares and Shewees were and
are entitled to an equal interest in
tho late percapita payments to
Chorokees by blood. A comprom-
ise 10 refer the matter TO a third
party amounted to a refusal to
make such an acknowledgement,
Or 10 pledge the party to such an
obligation.

this question beyond further con.

DON'T GO INTO THE MrRB.

For several numbers back, the
CH1EFTAIN has been warning its
many correspondents not to, as
one puts it, "hunt skunKs in the
dark" for fear of getting involved
in an atmosphere of perfumery
not quite as pleasant as the ottar
Of roses. To 60 forth like Goliath
of Gath, having no fears that any,
one will dare to attack him, is
putting one just where some fell
low will come along and down him
with bean-shooter. Many per-
sons who are honest and disposed
70 conduct the present political
campaign upon strictly political
grounds, without assailing the per-
sonal characters OF the candidates,
are forced by reason of sucn at
tacks against the man of their
choice for chief, to defend him in
like manner by assailing theirs
in return. That writer is but lit
tie removed from an idiot, who
thinks he can accomplish any good
or advantage for his candidates,
by singing around the bloody
shirt and parading old war records
false as his pretentions to COM
mon decency and respec:-for a
fair and honorable contest for
popular preference. Those who
are wont to aaunt such things have
dirted many a shirt, but never
blooded any except their own.

DIR. BLAND's Indian Defense as
sociation has secured, it is said,
assurances from the civilized tribes
that $1,000 shall be voted from
their treasures TO assist him in de.
Tending Indian rights. The Cher
kees' proportion is not stated. At
a reception where the matter OF
finances came up Lone Wolf and
Jake, of the Kiowas and Caddos,
expressed themselves as glad to
know they had friends in Washing
ton but we're doubtful about a
friendship for which they were
asked 10 pay.

be Incorporated into and ever after
remain a part of the Cherokee
nation eon equal terms in every
respect with native Cherokees. -
If terms have been equal there
certainly would not have been
this demand by one Of their del
egates. How they can ever remain
a part of the Cherokee nation, with
the difference of terms as have
already been made in per capita
payments, with possible changes
that may take place, and still be
treated as they have been, is little e
beyond the understandin 6 of the
CH1EFTAIN. Their incorporation
into the nation and ever after re-
naming a part of it, is refuted by
the fact that they are more as
privileged residents of the country,
than on equal terms with native
Cherokees.

To ]. A. Scales, Sometimes Attor-

SIR:-ln answer to your open
letter in the CHIEFTAIY Of the 10th
will say;
Your action in demanding the
name Of "Subscriber" under the
pretence that you had right to it,
when your object was only to
malign the writer, is unprecedent-
ed, ungentlemanly and cowardly.
AS to kicking a fyst, don't never
do a thing you might have cause to
regret. AS to the assertion / made
that learned attorney made the
remark that it seemed you were
trying 10 see how absurd and in
significant you could make the
court appear, Hon. l.. B. Bell, the
gentleman's friendship you have
so long courted, admits hearing
the remak. Ifyou doubt him I'll
give you more evidence. AS TO
the assertion made that another
said he didn't see how you could
afford to accept the position at the
salary and thus debar yourself
from the practice before the courts,

remark more than once and from
